The only other thing that would do that is a STRONG wind.<BR/><BR/>I know you told us about those pencils that work in rain, but I haven't gotten around to getting one.<BR/><BR/>Matt: On the field, you can get so much more info. I like the fact that I can determine for myself where every spot of the ball is; in the box, you're at an angle.<BR/><BR/>And you notice different things. Like on the visiting team's only score last night, they ran a hitch & go, executed very well vs. 1-on-1 coverage. CB bit like a bass on a hook. I didn't use it in the story, but it was some good info to have just in case.Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09807781785614536692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25461612.post-1162318668394569152006-10-31T13:17:00.000-05:002006-10-31T13:17:00.000-05:00This brings up an interesting point.

(We took out one idiot last week because he didn't move before we took the chains across the field.)<BR/><BR/>These guys look like they are recording every play. Wouldn't it be a hell of a lot easier to see what's going on from up high? When there's a play on the far side of the field, there's no way they can see who forced a fumble, recovered it, etc. Maybe they can, but their vision must be a lot better than mine.Stormyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00383728590462590740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25461612.post-1162314899957384952006-10-31T12:14:00.000-05:002006-10-31T12:14:00.000-05:00Just another reason why cheerleaders should be in ...Just another reason why cheerleaders should be in the stands -- they think they are bigger than the game and that people actually came to see them and not the game. <BR/><BR/>Argh. <BR/><BR/>And Brian -- the press box? At a high school game? Pffft! Sidelines! I don't think I've spent more than a quarter in a press box at a high school game ever. And that includes two driving rain storms this year.<BR/><BR/>Although...<BR/><BR/>If you've ever seen the press boxes up here, you'd understand why. If you guys have anything down there that actually resemble press boxes, you can actually get a seat and can see the game... I might consider it! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
